Maxi & Cie Flyer - May 24 - 30, 2012

[rewok]

I had to throw everything out except the bread and freezer jam

It had all defrosted. 9 bags

Second ouch! I had to throw some food this winter when we lost power for 24h, luckily only fridge items, since the standalone freezer was packed! (which probably helped keep everything frozen)

Free Minute Maid juices with the tear pad coupon that I found this week!

Where did you found the coupon ?? Please !!

[MiaowTheCat]

Cocottee, it's a new coupon that has come out and is in the frozen juice section. It's save $1 WUB2, so these would be free using 3 coupons

You're making it from scratch at that price, right? I'm prostrating at your feet , but it's too much work for me... We're not eating much of it anyways, it's just DH & I, and I mostly use yogourt to make tzatziki sauce or to eat with berries for dessert. I'll try to make frozen stuff with it over the week-end thought, I found an inspiring recipe (strained plain yogourt, sugar, vanilla, and I'll throw in crushed raspberries). If it's yummy, I'll stock up!

Don't know if I could just freeze it in it's tub, then thaw when I want to make "frozen yogourt" in my ice cream machine... More googling for me!

yup from scratch, because we could eat 20L of yogurt in 10 days here on recurrent basis!

For the frozen yogurt, if you didn't stir it once every 60 minutes, you will have a big ice cube of yogurt difficulte to use. By stiring the yogurt tub once every 60 minutes, you will broken the "ice cristal", include some air in the yogurt and will be able to take spoon of it after... But it take a day to do! If you are not working at home (or a stay at home mom like me) this could be hard.

Maybe you could do like couponmummy and froze the yogurt in the small ice cube container for futur use.

You better make it from scratch then! I know it's supposed to be easy, but probably still time consuming. I admire a lot people who do everything from scratch, it's not always possible when you work full time like me.

To make the frozen yogourt, I will use my ice cream machine (sorbetière):

Je fais régulièrement du sorbet, mais je n'ai jamais essayé de faire de la crème glacée ou du yogourt glacé. C'est certain que je ne pourrais pas brasser tout ça chaque heure, mais la machine le fait pour moi!!! (Mais c'est bruyant...)

[2010ontest]

ok, t'en as une machine... ben oui prends-là!

Moi j'en ai pas alors je fais autrement

The Old El Paso kit are still on sale @ 3$. I received my 1$ on the Smart Fiesta one yesterday with a May 30th expiry (!!!), so I'll use it there. (sending coupons with not even a 2 week expiry is pretty bad, but this sale means I'll be able to use it)

[Patty Smyth]

I actually have quite a long list for Maxi this week, a lot of the fruits are a good price too. I am doing a lunch for my sons school Monday soI will be buying my fruit for the dessert there and the free juice for them lol

[MiaowTheCat]

Yeah this coming week seems to be pretty decent (compared to the last weeks) for deals! Even Metro has some stuff!

rewok, I got the same! Received it yesterday with a May 31 expiry! I think save.ca has been very slow in sending out coupons lately, so that might be the reason?

[AnnieP]

Someone mention the existence of a coupon for free sour cream WYB 2 Old El Paso kit. This coupon was available it recently or a few weeks ago?

It was last Thursday on the CZ board, at the Maxi & Cie on Papineau close to Crémazie.

I'm pretty sure I ordered it within the last month of so, but I just used it tonight, so I'm OK. Old El Paso kits are so often on sale that it's not so bad.

It was a CZ coupon, but I'm pretty sure it expired last Friday Sorry

I was at that same Maxi today (May 23). I noticed that coupon still on the board. I didn't take any, and didn't notice the expiry date, but they usually expire on Fridays.

I am getting ready to go stock up!!! Have to get back home before it gets too hot and my pizzas melt. Of course I bought 2 nice big freezer bags at Costco yesterday but they are in the car DH took to work not in my dads car that I use during the day

[GeorgiaK]
